Yes, it makes things very easy to rearrange things, and it works 
wonderfully with version control, since changes happen line by line, so 
diffs usually show what actually changed, whereas this information is 
lost if you reformat with fill-paragraph or keep all paragraphs on a 
single line.

I'll have to try using lists, since this will make sentence and clause 
rearrangement even quicker. Thanks for the idea!

Best,

Galen
